We blush, we look away, we replay the moment for hours (or years) after it happened, becoming convinced that everyone noticed far more than they probably did. Embarrassment is an interesting and complex emotion, but it can help us recognise social expectations and communicate how our behaviour affects others.

Watch on Netflix: HERE

We explore:
•        When we first develop the capacity to feel embarrassed
•        Why we blush and the role of embarrassment in trust
•        Why some of us feel embarrassment more than others
•        The role of rumination 
•        The psychological and social role of embarrassment 
•        How we can form a better relationship with it

Brain fog is so much more than just feeling tired. It's that frustrating feeling of knowing what you want to say or do, but your brain simply won't cooperate. And whilst it's incredibly common, we're only just beginning to understand what actually causes it.

Watch on Netflix: HERE

In today's episode, we're breaking down the fascinating new research behind brain fog, including:


The three main causes of brain fog, from physical depletion to cognitive overload and neurological disruption


Why chronic stress, anxiety and mental load can leave your brain feeling exhausted


The surprising links between brain fog, inflammation, long COVID and gut health


Why women may be more susceptible to brain fog


The science of sleep, nutrition and the brain's natural cleaning system


What actually helps clear brain fog, beyond just drinking more water and getting more rest

468. The psychology of brain fog

Does the taxi cab theory actually explain why some people suddenly become ready to settle down, or is it just another dating myth?

In this episode, we’re breaking down the psychology behind the infamous, Sex and The City taxi cab theory and asking whether timing really can determine who we end up with. We explore commitment readiness, the social clock, why our relationship priorities change as we age, and the painful psychology of watching someone give their next partner everything they refused to give you.

Watch on Netflix: HERE

We discuss:

• The psychology behind the taxi cab theory
• Why someone can suddenly become “ready” for commitment
• The foster girlfriend phenomenon
• Why timing matters, but compatibility matters more
• How to tell when someone is genuinely serious about you
• Why waiting for someone’s “light to switch on” can keep you stuck
